Ange Postecoglou left cringing as 'Happy Days' tune played in Tottenham presser before boss offers praise to The Fonz

It left Postecoglou with his head in his hands, visibly cringing to the bone until the song finished. The Aussie replied: "Wow.. Firstly, can I say - what a gentleman Henry Winkler is.

"He sent me a message and I'm truly chuffed by that. I said during the week, sometimes you get disappointed when you meet your heroes but what a great gentleman. If he does send me a photo, I'll put it on my wall despite the protestations of my wife.

"If we win, we go top of the table for 24 hours but who cares? We have got to win. It's a tough game, and our focus will be on putting on a performance and if we don't, it doesn't matter where we're sitting - it will
